More than a quarter of US homes now have no landline and rely instead on mobile

"More than a quarter of U.S. homes have no landlines, relying instead on a wireless connection - a number that has doubled in the space of three years, according to a new survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics. Every state saw a rise in the percentage of wireless-only homes, with the highest being Arkansas at 35.2% and the lowest increase in Rhode Island and New Jersey at 12.8%."
